Swtor Credits Guide - Want To Make Credits But Dont Like Grinding?

Since Star Wars: The Old Republic is a MMO game, you will need in-game currency. In this case, credits. In this SWTOR credits guide, I will give you some ideas about how to make more credits without needing to grind for hours on end. If you don't like crafting as well, then you should probably stop reading this now.

First of all, you need credits in SWTOR, maybe more than you make just by doing quests. Up until level 18, I constantly had trouble with money. You need credits to buy items, you need them to buy potions and you also need credits to raise your crafting skills.

There are vendors around the game that sell regenerative stim packs and also stat stim packs that provide bonuses to an attribute. These tend to cost a lot and they are very useful to have when doing PvE.

If you have crew skills on your companion, and you should, you know that you can send them on missions to level up their skills and also bring you all sorts of rewards. But to send them on such missions costs credits. So what can you do to make credits in SWTOR without grinding.

1. Get crew skills for your companion.

There are three major groups of skills, crafting, gathering and mission. You can make good money with these if you pick the right combination. For example, if you want to be able to craft armor for Force users, like the Jedi or Sith, you will need the Synthweaving crafting skill. The other skills that go with this, so you can provide yourself with the necessary ingredients are the Archaeology gathering skill and the Underworld Trading mission skill.

What you do is craft the armor and then sell it to other players. Much like in any other game. But if you don't want all that headache, you can simply take on three gathering skills and you will only have to sell the ingredients. Which can prove to be very profitable as you will be supplying three different crafting skills.

2. Do every daily quest.

You can get daily quests for both Warzones and for Space missions. Although it might be difficult to complete the Warzone one, as you are required to win a Warzone, the Space Mission one is quite simple. You simply have to complete one or more missions and you will get extra amounts of credits and also commendations.

Doing these every day, besides what you normally do, will grant you a pretty good bonus to your wallet. That way you can have fun while still keeping your financial status in the game balanced.

One thing to remember here is that you don't need to buy any items from other players. Everything that others have, you can have. They are either drops from mobs, which you will eventually get, or crafted items. Which you don't really need as you can find similar items on quests. You will need the credits for what I said earlier, stim packs and also speeders and ship parts. So having a SWTOR credits guide might come in handy, especially when new expansions come.
